GG, you sound just like my wife. Loves sweets; doesn't like vegetables; meat and cheese only on her sandwiches etc. She was (and I was too) skinny as a rail. It really didn't matter what we ate; we always stayed thin. That does NOT mean we were healthy.
She just turned 34 this year and it's starting to catch up to her. Recently, she has made a conscious effort to eat salads (which she absolutely detested when we first met 17 years ago), she even uses healthier dressing rather than cream dressings. She is trying different things like fish and pork (instead of red meat). I, on the other hand, will eat anything and usually love it (except for pickled beets).
That fast metabolism of yours will slow down; it's pretty much inevitable. What does this mean for you? Nothing really. Neither my wife, nor I are particularly over-weight. Sure, we could stand to lose 5 pounds or so (the middle-age thing really sucks when it comes to that). I just wanted to let you know that you're probably not much more crazy than my wife when it comes to food weirdness.
Enjoy your sweets. Just don't overdo it.
